The marketing specialist decides to shoot for the moon. “I’m thinking in the range of $125,000 a year or so, depending on the benefits package.”
“Hmm,” says the interviewer. “Well, what would you say to five weeks’ vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, a retirement fund with company matching to 50 percent of salary, and a company car leased every two years – say, a Porsche?”
The young marketing specialist gapes and says, “Wow! Are you kidding?”
“Yeah,” replies the interviewer, “but you started it.”
